6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was quite roomy as was the bathroom. Beds were comfortable enough. Would have been a pretty nice place back in the day. However it is quite dated and could do with some maintenance - the bathroom tap leaked all over the bench, the doors were a struggle to close and need realignment. The air con in our room would not heat so it was quite a chilly night. We couldn’t hear any noise from the club next door but there were small children in a room nearby that were our early morning wake up call. For the price I would have expected it to be a bit more comfortable
